VOJTA PRINCIPLE IN THE PHYSIOTHERAPY OF LOCOMOTIVE DISORDERS BY THE CHILDREN´S NEUROLOGICAL PATIENTS
KADLECOVÁ, Jana
My bachelor thesis deals with reflexology in relation to treatment of children with cerebral palsy (CP). As the Vojta method has been considered the most effective for treatment of patients suffering from any form of cerebral palsy, I have chosen as the main objective of my thesis the evaluation of effectiveness of treatment with the Vojta method. The respondents were two clients of the Arpida center for rehabilitation of handicapped people, who were undergoing treatment for triparetic and diparetic form of cerebral palsy. In the theoretical part I described facts about the disorder, including its etiology, symptoms, clinical manifestations but particularly diagnostics, prevention and treatment. Subsequently, I described the essence of the Vojta method as a diagnostic and therapeutic system. The practical part used a method of qualitative research, based on a secondary analysis of data and direct observation. The monitoring included a standard observation test Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) and ADL test. To meet one partial objective of the thesis, i.e. analysis of experience of parents with treatment of CP using the Vojta method, I used a method of semi-structured interview. The examination of spontaneous mobility and the quality and quantity of body posture in the development of erective mechanisms has confirmed improvement in both the respondents after the applied therapy using the Vojta method, which has been demonstrated in the final kinesiology analysis. The case studies have shown that effectiveness of the therapy using the Vojta method is influenced by certain aspects, such as frequency, dosing, early beginning of the therapy, proper management of parents by the physiotherapist and the parents´ attitude to the therapy. The Vojta method represents a good basis for treatment of children with cerebral palsy but the rehabilitation shall be always an integral process. In conclusion of my thesis I have recommended to monitor clients in their development by using retardation quotient calculations.
